Number of Posts

In looking at the sign up for the SBS event, I noticed a proud fact - that I am the second most prolific poster (634) signed up, second only to Taboo - er, Tyboo (961), while Der Nag has a puny (600), and the rest of you pikers are not even close...

BA! HUMBUG!!!

NONSENCE!

TO THIS I SAY:

1. Some people reply to everything: 1) just to be sociable, or 2) just because they have the time and nothing else to do on long, cold, dark winter nights or 3) just to pass the time at work! Xmas LOL

2. Others wait until they have something signifigant to say that they think others want to hear!!! Xmas Naughty

3. For some, a post is two words or two sentences, For others, 800 to 1500 words on a technical subject explains things thoroughly. Xmas Tongue

4. Sheer number of posts is an interesting number, but may not be the ultimate gauge of the value of one's contributions to C-Brant Land. But for you, if the number is the final test, reply to this and have yourself some more fun!!! Moon

See you at the SBS & SBC!!! Joe.

Once again, I must agree with my friend Joe. Verbosity is not necessarily a virtue.

OK Pat,
I'm siding with you cause your right, some of us have been a bit on the quiet side here lately. We have so many new members that are adding to the posts though that it takes most of my free time just to read let alone right. I also think my home projects and work have something to do with it. Maybe I'll try not to let it get in the way so much. Besides, the SBS & CBC is coming up and that always gets everyones juices flowing for the new season.

Well, if y'all don't keep up your end on the posting, there won't be much for folks to read! Even "BA! HUMBUG!" is better than seeing no new messages... I recall a thread from a while back called "Yoohoo - Anybody out there?" which occasionally sums it up. Actually, it has been fairly active around here recently, keep up the good work!

the size of the average posting is not of importance either

B~C · Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2004 9:51 am Post subject:

the quality of content is of some importance

B~C · Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2004 9:55 am Post subject:

I'm proud to say, my posts contain none of the above attributes, they also contain no artifical sweeteners and are low in carbs, their content consists mainly of free range, organically grown humor

If being retired makes you think your time on the computer goes up think again.

And Ken, way to go on racking up your "score"
